70 North Road

Brighton VIC 3186

Fine British beauty with blue-chip prospects at this iconic address. Situated in approx 826sqm grounds just 500m from the Golden Mile beachfront, this solid-brick four bedroom, two bathroom home is a fine example of the elegant English-style architecture of its time… with scope to capitalise on one of the great addresses of our time. High-gabled and handsome with a curvaceous lounge reaching out to north sun and gracious separate dining flowing to a garden-view home-office, this substantial home is adaptably accommodating with bedrooms upstairs and down (including an immense treetop master) and a versatile nursery-sized dressing-room/retreat. Living even extends outside in gracious style with a contemporary conservatory of solid stone walls, bi-folds and merbau decking topped by a soaring vaulted-glass rooflineRenovated with respect for the rich timber-work, decorative ceilings and lofty proportions of the original architecture, the home is styled for today with a sleek stone and Miele appliance kitchen and luxurious stone-finished bathrooms. Centrally heated with reverse-cycle air-conditioning, ducted vacuum and an alarm, the home's modern comforts include a separate garage, double carport and abundant parking behind intercom-entry auto-gates. Offering all the beauty of yesterday for today's family living, the property has unlimited potential to adapt to future plans with deep rear gardens sized for extension… and a premier address to justify the most impressive new home. Two doors from Kamesburgh Gardens and steps to Star of the Sea and St James Primary School, this is grand potential at the greatest of locations - close to Martin St village and station, a minute to Church St and the central Brighton schools, with the boardwalks and cycle-tracks of the bay at the end of the boulevard.
